Image processing techniques are used for manipulating and displaying images. Examples of image processing techniques range from simple operations such as contrast enhancement, cropping, and scaling to more complex operations such as advanced geometric warping and frequency domain processing. These are used in a variety of applications including:

• Astronomy
• Medical Imaging
• Geospatial Data Processing
• Defense and Intelligence
• Photography
• E-Commerce and Retail

The Java Advanced Imaging API extends the Java platform for developing image processing applications and applets in Java. It streamlines the process of creating powerful imaging software solutions.

The Java Advanced Imaging API 1.0 Specification was developed by Sun Microsystems, Inc., Autometric, Inc., Eastman Kodak, Inc., and Siemens Corporate Research, Inc.

Java Advanced Imaging 1.0.2 Implementation

Java Advanced Imaging 1.0.2 implementation is Now Available. Key improvements include better Tile-Caching and enhanced support for binary data.
